I’ll echo the congrats and “stunning”s – especially drawn to “Each morning … refleshing the night’s bones … into numinous forms greater than their divisible parts, their intractable sums, into bodies and shapes extracted through a moment’s glimpse …” Mornings w/o alarms are like this – full of treasures to collect, assemble. (Eager for day spouse retires and alarms cease!)

  Thanks, Jazz. I set my alarm only once or twice a week, and usually wake before it blares. But I know what you mean!
